The invention discloses a method for detecting pesticide residues in sulfur-containing vegetables by an enzyme inhibition method. The method comprises the following steps of 1, preparing a standard solution, 2, preparing a sample, 3, testing control groups through the processes of adding a buffer solution into a beaker, adding dropwisely acetate or sodium hydroxide into the beaker, adjusting a pH value of the mixed solution to a pH value of 9, adding an enzyme solution and a color-developing agent into the mixed solution with a pH value of 9, shaking up, standing at a temperature of 37 DEG C for 15 minutes, adding a substrate solution into the mixed solution treated by the previous step, shaking up, and detecting an absorbance variation value delta A0 of the mixed solution undergoing a reaction at wavelength of 410 nanometers for 3 minutes by a spectrometer, 4, adding sulfur-containing vegetable sample extract into a beaker, carrying out processes same as the processes of the step 3, and detecting an absorbance variation value delta A1 of a vegetable sample mixed solution undergoing a reaction at wavelength of 410 nanometers for 3 minutes by a spectrometer, and 5, calculating an enzyme inhibition percentage according to a formula of an enzyme inhibition percentage=[(delta A0-delta A1)/delta A0]*100, wherein when the calculated enzyme inhibition percentage is great than or equal to 50%, it is shown that there are pesticide residues in the detected sulfur-containing vegetable. The method eliminates the interference of sulfides in a sulfur-containing vegetable on pesticide residue detection through adjustment of a pH value of a vegetable sample solution, can rapidly, simply and accurately detect a pesticide residue ratio of a sulfur-containing vegetable, has a low cost, and is suitable for on-site detection.
